Pokémon Go Fest 2023 is starting early this year, with in-person events running for players in Osaka and London from August 4 to 6. And, just as you’d expect from such a huge event, a wide variety of Pokémon will be featured as encounters—including a few new faces like Diancie and Mega Rayquaza.
If you are out at either event and purchased an event ticket, you’ll have access to all of the event perks, including increased spawns, a few epic raids featuring Legendary Pokémon, and special Habitat Rotation encounters that change throughout the day. Most of this content will also be available to players around the world later this month during Go Fest 2023: Global, but for now it is locked to in-person events.
Whether you want to try your hand at completing the various Habitat Collection Challenges or just plan on catching Pokémon to clear your Special Research tasks, you should try to keep up with just what Pokémon are actually available.
